Need Space and Power? Why the 2025 Nissan Armada Delivers on Both Fronts

Looking for an SUV that truly delivers on both spaciousness and performance can feel like an impossible search in today's market. Many vehicles promise ample room but fall short on capability, or offer impressive power while cramping your passengers and cargo.

The all-new 2025 Nissan Armada resolves this dilemma by offering genuine full-size accommodation without compromising on capability or advanced features. With a completely redesigned frame, expanded interior dimensions, and a more powerful yet efficient engine, the Armada stands ready to handle everything from daily commutes to weekend adventures.


Room for Everything (and Everyone)


The 2025 Armada transforms your driving experience with thoughtfully expanded interior dimensions. Front-row legroom increases by 107 mm compared to the previous model, while third-row passengers enjoy an impressive 145 additional mm of legroom—making this a true eight-passenger vehicle where adults can sit comfortably in all rows.

Cargo capacity receives equally significant upgrades. Behind the third row, you'll find 578 litres of storage—a 24% increase that translates to nearly 113 additional litres. Fold down the third row, and that expands to 1,594 litres. With both second and third rows folded, the Armada provides a cavernous 2,750 litres for those larger hauling needs.

Everyday practicality extends to the details: eight cup holders, four bottle holders, and multiple USB-C ports throughout the cabin keep everyone connected and refreshed. The standard power liftgate (motion-activated on higher trims) makes loading cargo effortless even when your hands are full.


Power Where It Counts


Under the hood, the 2025 Armada introduces a twin-turbo 3.5-litre V6 engine that outperforms the previous V8. With 425 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque, you'll have 25 more horsepower and an impressive 103 lb-ft more torque than the outgoing model—numbers that translate directly to improved acceleration and towing confidence.

This power enables an 8,500-pound towing capacity, supported by a standard Class IV tow hitch and 7-pin harness pre-wiring across all trim levels. For those who tow regularly, the PRO-4X and Platinum Reserve grades add an Integrated Trailer Brake Controller for additional control and safety.

The 9-speed automatic transmission (up from 7 speeds) offers 40% greater gear ratio range, providing better acceleration from standstill and improved efficiency at highway speeds. Combined with fuel-efficiency technologies like Idle Stop-Start and mirror bore coatings that reduce friction, the Armada balances power with sensible fuel management.


Technology That Enhances Both


Smart technology in the Armada amplifies both its spaciousness and capability. The innovative camera system provides multiple views—including the Invisible Hood View that lets you see "through" the engine bay for precise positioning in tight spaces. The 3D Around View Monitor offers a rotatable perspective that helps you navigate with confidence despite the vehicle's size.

For highway driving, ProPILOT Assist takes the stress out of long journeys. The advanced 2.1 version (standard on Platinum Reserve) enables hands-free operation on compatible highways, while maintaining attentive oversight of traffic conditions.

The interior tech complements the spacious cabin with dual displays—up to 14.3 inches on higher trims—that offer Google built-in functionality. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, along with a premium Klipsch audio system featuring 12 speakers and 600 watts of power that fill the generous interior with rich sound.


Capability Beyond the Pavement


The new PRO-4X grade takes the Armada's capabilities even further with an electronic locking rear differential, adaptive electronic air suspension, all-terrain tires, and a unique front fascia with improved approach angle. With 244 mm of ground clearance and impressive approach, departure, and breakover angles, the Armada conquers rough terrain with confidence while maintaining a refined on-road demeanor.

Eight selectable drive modes fine-tune vehicle systems to match the terrain, whether you're navigating snow, sand, rocks, or mud. The available air suspension can lower for easier access when parked or raise for additional clearance off-road, adding versatility to the Armada's capabilities.

The 2025 Nissan Armada's expanded space and increased power aren't just numbers on a spec sheet—they translate directly to improved versatility and confidence in everyday driving. From comfortable family road trips to towing weekend toys or navigating off-road adventures, the Armada provides the capabilities you need without compromise.
